    Fingerprint sensor now works approx. 33% of the time

    It works about 0% of the time now. I'd like to avoid a factory reset but it might have to happen.

    Fingerprint sensor now works approx. 33% of the time

    Not sure if it was from the April update or what, but my fingerprint sensor which I used all the time has gone from nearly perfect to annoying at best. I tried resetting my fingerprints and that did nothing. Anyone else in this problem and any fix?

    How to set up regular voicemail on Verizon Pixel 2

    I call voicemail, it asks for my password. I've never set up a password... There's no way to interrupt or get out of the only menu I reach: "Please enter your password." Any help?

    Quick, general question about battery saver mode

    Agreed with the amazing battery life! I'm out and about during the days, and I don't like charging my phone overnight, so I do all I can no matter how good the battery is. With everything off (wifi/data/bluetooth/always on/location) I usually lose about 10% of battery through an 8-9 hour night...

    Just Ordered A Pixel 2 - Finally!

    I'm an Android "snob" and have owned virtually every stock Android phone plus many Samsungs and HTCs. This is by far the best phone and best Android experience to date. Keep in mind this phone is designed to translate Android to the user; and that's it. It really is pure, vanilla Android. And...

    Quick, general question about battery saver mode

    I turn off WiFi, data and location before I go to bed (except maybe some Friday and Saturday nights hehe). Would turning on battery saver make a big difference? It may be worth noting that I have the screen setting "Always On" turned off. Thanks!

    30Gb of system data in new S9+ out of the box

    Ahh...bloatware. If it came out of the box like that it usually can't be reduced by much. You won't be able to uninstall most of them, but you can go through each individual app you don't want, hold it down and drag it to the "uninstall" drawer that appears at the top of the screen if allowed...

    How to disable "trending" story cards in Google feed

    Whatever they're calling Google Now these days, maybe Google Feed, it is showing trending stories. I think I remember allowing trending stories somewhere in the settings but I can't seem to find it. Anyone know where to do this? Thanks in advance

    Will the Pixel's active display (?) ever be what Motorola's was?

    Oh I didn't know that about white being worse...darn. Well I recently took ambient display off. And that leads me to another question... When I first turned it off, it seemed like it would pop on when I picked up the phone. I really liked that. Now I'm only does it every now and then...so my...

    Will the Pixel's active display (?) ever be what Motorola's was?

    I don't think the burn-in is an issue for lighter colored pixels, but I could be wrong. My Moto x devices never had burn-in, but they pulsed every few seconds. I wish the Pixel did this and/or only showing ambient display when it senses a hand over the phone or when the phone goes from covered...

    Very specific question about Twitter on Android

    Found the answer - is there no way to delete a thread?

    Will the Pixel's active display (?) ever be what Motorola's was?

    I had every generation of Moto X and absolutely loved the active display and active notifications. Do you think the Pixel's "active display" or whatever it may be called will evolve to the caliber of Motorola's? Some features I liked about Moto's: - Moto's "breathed" instead of staying on...

    What features are you most looking forward to?

    They already did dark themes for a long time, plus stock android already has the ability to switch between dark and light, albeit automatically based on wallpaper.

    Very specific question about Twitter on Android

    So, we've got a meteorologist in town that is super solid and also very, very active on Twitter. It made me wonder...is there any way to get notifications from just one specific Twitter user? Or anything of the sort? Thanks in advance.

    Stock home screen widget suddenly missing temp and weather icon

    So, this begs the question(s)... Does the location need to be on for the temperature to show, or will the temp always show? And if the temp always shows, I'm assuming it won't update temp when you change location?

    Stock home screen widget suddenly missing temp and weather icon

    I haven't come across a way to omit temperature in the widget. The widget is so simple, I think it's all or nothing.

    Stock home screen widget suddenly missing temp and weather icon

    It wasn't. Just turned it back on. Wondering, if thats the reason, when it will show back up.

    Stock home screen widget suddenly missing temp and weather icon

    Hey all, On a stock Pixel 2 XL my home screen widget (that I love, coming from BW) went from showing date and weather to showing just the date. I've searched online for answeres, but haven't found anything that I've been able to do on my phone. Any solutions?
